  1. The reasoning for not being able to change camera shoulder is weak to say the least, and it's the change that bugs me the most. Never even felt like something depended on the camera angle, aside from my OCD :p Watch my muscle memory still furiously tap V whenever I want to get a better angle.
    Great video! I agree, the game is far from flawless, but it's enjoyable.

  2. As someone who played Hitman 2 just before Hitman 3 released, the level focus really made H3 play better. Some of the maps in H2 feel bloated to the point where exploration was overwhelming or a chore. The humour throughout H3 was on point too, especially the NPCs in Dartmoor.
    Also, does anyone know why the game will sometimes just crash to desktop? There's no error message or anything, the game just locks up and quits. I think it's sometimes a "too much going on" situation, but there's no indication from my PC that anything is topping out.

  3. The ibbe guy, the one with the hippo picture, defended blindshooting, (the brackets left when you shoot and you get stuck for 4 seconds), and he's a mod, what a prat. Plus I disagree with the recycled elusive targets, I didn't get to unlock hitman ets in legacy and I want the yukata. I spend half my hitman time playing the 2016 version because of how much I miss it

  4. They really shouldn’t have removed dual silverballers it’s too iconic to agent 47. Also why can you not garrote someone when they are sitting down and why can you not drown someone in a sink?? Idk there are many good things but I feel like they are still missing what should be core mechanics :/
